    A friend of mine got a pass degree in comp sci and went back to do the final 2 years in trinity in the evenings to get an honours one,

    You can do a grad diploma in one of the vecs but I think as far as masters and phds go u need at least a 2nd honours

    I have a pass degree in Production Engineering and did a M.Sc in Smurfits School of Business, UCD. No need for an honours !!

    On another note most colleges will initially take any level and grade of experience and interview if necessary for suitability.
    Ultimately at the end of the day, if you have the funds to pay for your fees, your in. In the current working environments where a lot of companies are not willing to pay for further education or have put it on hold, colleges are crying out for money.

    Best of luck !!
